About the VHIR
Here at the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR) we promote biomedical research, innovation and teaching. Over 1,800 people are seeking to understand diseases today so the treatment can be improved tomorrow.
Research
We are working to understand diseases, to find out how they operate and to create better treatments for patients. Get to know about our groups and their lines of research.
People
People are the centre of the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR). This is why we are bound by the principles of freedom of research, gender equality and professional attitudes that HRS4R promotes.
Clinical trials
Our work is not just basic or translational; we are leaders in clinical research. Enter and find about the clinical trials we are conducting and why we are a world reference in this field.
Progress
Our aim is to make the research carried out at the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute (VHIR) a driving force for transformation. How? By identifying new channels and solutions for the promotion of people's health and well-being.
Core facilities
We offer specialist support for researchers, internal and external alike, ranging from specific services to preparing complete projects. All this, from a perspective of quality and speed of response.
News
We offer you a gateway for staying up to date on everything going on at the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute (VHIR), from the latest news to future solidarity activities and initiatives that we are organising.
The group’s basic and clinical research activity, above all, surrounds the fields of inflammation and repair, respiratory insufficiency and tissue hypoxia, and these fields complement one another and are connected through the study of conditions such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, infections, transplants, pulmonary hypertension or sleep-related breathing disorders.
The group has an experimental research laboratory and a clinical research and clinical trial unit. It is made up of professionals from different specialties (pulmonologists, biologists, nurses, laboratory technicians, physiotherapists etc.). This multidisciplinary team provides an added value to the group and guarantees the existence of the critical mass necessary to carry out scientific projects.
Our group is a node that belongs to the CIBERES network (CIBER for respiratory diseases) and also works in collaboration with groups of the highest national and international prestige.
In the field of COPD, the main research lines have centred on genetic aspects of the disease, with special emphasis on patents with emphysema due to a-1 antitrypsin deficit and exacerbation of COPD. Moreover, a research line has been initiated based on the study of inflammation in lung tissue by molecular biology techniques.

The Group has a dedicated outpatient care center for primary immunodeficiency and is the referral center for this disease. There is also a Catalonian Referral Unit for Cystic Fibrosis, which maintains the Spanish registry of bronchiectasis and patients with a1-antitrypsin deficit. Moreover, the team is considered to be expert in the control of tuberculous disease.
IP: Cystic fibrosis and primary immunodeficiencies.
The Group performed the first successful lung transplantation in Spain. Currently, it is one of the hospitals where the largest number of lung transplants are carried out annually, which places it among the leading centers in Europe and the world for this activity.

The Paediatric Pulmonology and Cystic Fibrosis Unit is a Spanish referral center for paediatric lung transplantation and pulmonary hypertension and a Catalonia referral center for children with cystic fibrosis, including the neonatal screening program. The main lines of research include the study of inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in asthma in infants and older children, the determination of reference values for spirometry in children and the study of lung function in children with sequelae of neonatal respiratory disease (bronchopulmonary dysplasia). The Unit has established a new line of study of ciliary motility and ultrastructure in primary ciliary dyskinesia to allow further study of this rare disease.

This recognition highlights both his career and the level of respiratory research in Spain.
The ERS Awards recognize outstanding members for their exceptional contributions in the field of respiratory medicine.
Dr. Miravitlles’ career was recognized during the 57th edition of the SEPAR National Congress held in Valencia.
EXIMIOUS (Mapping Exposure-Induced Immune Effects: Connecting the Exposome and the Immunome), un projecte finançat per la Unió Europea que engloba 15 organitzacions de 7 països europeus.
EXIMIOUS té com a objectiu estudiar l’exposoma, és a dir, l’exposició a factors ambientals al llarg de la vida, per entendre la seva relació amb les malalties immunomediades, com ara les malalties autoimmunes o les al·lèrgies. Des del VHIR està liderat per la Dra. M Jesús Cruz i el seu equip de Pneumologia.
